Gaussin\u2019s APM-H2 is dedicated to moving containers on port terminals and capable of pulling over 75t. The company has also developed the ATM-H2, intended for logistics hubs and with a towing capacity of 38t.<\/p>\n
Christophe Gaussin, chairman of Gaussin, said the launch \u201cof our first hydrogen-powered vehicles is an important step in Gaussin’s strategy to offer a full range of zero CO2 emission vehicles\u201d.<\/p>\n
These vehicles are equipped with hydrogen powerpacks, the earliest versions of which were developed in partnership with the CEA-Liten (Atomic Energy Agency – Innovation Laboratory for New Energy Technologies and Nanomaterials).<\/p>\n
The vehicles’ hydrogen tanks can be filled up in a matter of minutes for several hours of operation. This ratio of charging time to autonomy gives the hydrogen solution a clear advantage over other technologies. In addition, as the filling process is similar to that of filling up at a petrol station, the vehicles are easy to use.<\/p>\n
Hydrogen partnership<\/strong><\/p>\n Gaussin has entered into a partnership with Faurecia to equip the ATM-H2 and the APM-H2 with Faurecia\u2019s hydrogen storage systems.<\/p>\n Containing 5kg of hydrogen at 350 bars and with up to 12 hours of autonomy, the storage systems will be developed and produced by Faurecia.<\/p>\n Delivery of these systems will begin in 2020.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Port and logistics operators will be able to further their sustainable fuel goals with newly developed hydrogen-propelled vehicles.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":1185,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[30],"tags":[],"sponsor":[],"class_list":["post-1184","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-energy-technology-greenport"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/coastlink\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1184","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/coastlink\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/coastlink\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/coastlink\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/coastlink\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1184"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/coastlink\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1184\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1186,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/coastlink\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1184\/revisions\/1186"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/coastlink\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1185"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/coastlink\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1184"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/coastlink\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1184"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/coastlink\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1184"},{"taxonomy":"sponsor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/coastlink\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sponsor?post=1184"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
